The people I detest most in the Bitcoin and Shitcoin scene are those who are only here for the quick buck. The best way to recognise them is that they reject every form of progress besides Bitcoin. No matter if it's about e-cars, renewables, lab grown meat, LGBTQ+ rights or other modern topics. Bitcoin is for the people of today and tomorrow. Those of yesterday should continue to hodl their gold.

Twitter is slowly becoming a pay-to-use app. It's time for Nostr mass-adoption.

xD

If you want to know why politicians failing so hard on bitcoin, search for "Shou Chew Wi-Fi". It's a shame that people get voted who don't even understand 90s technology.

Hindenburg Research released a report on $SQ. Some accusations are not dramatic. Others will certainly get a slap on the wrist from the financial supervisory authority. This ain't looking good, #[0]

The death spiral of Western hegemony. Due to the global shift to the right, the Western nations are too busy with themselves to take care of the global risks. We are experiencing peak democracy and peak freedom.

The new IPCC report offers an interesting look into the future. Looking at b) "Heat-humidity risk to human health" raises the question of when China or India will invade Russia.

The two most significant differences between SVB and FTX: Banks are not only allowed to gamble with customer money but also generate money out of thin air from customer funds for leveraged gambling.

Even though electrification began in the 1880s by replacing gas lamps with electric bulbs, almost 150 years later we are still not at the end of electrification. The last bastions of the enemies of progress are the monetary system, heating systems, and transportation. Bitcoin (and also a little DeFi with shitcoins), heat pumps, electric vehicles and hydrogen airplanes will fix that.

I've made the first pre-release of my NostrCLI-GUI. It utilizes my NostrCLI and Godot to render a nice GUI. You can use templates, query events, copy & paste and (re)publish them. The primary purpose of it is to have a handy development tool. You can find it here:

Yo #[0] , is there a reason you`ve used a immediate mode gui for gossip? I don`t think that's a good idea for a nostr clients as you have a lot of elements that will be re-rendered every frame.

I always laugh when conspiracy theorists talk about going "down the rabbit hole". It's a metaphor for an adventure into the unknown, but simultaneously, it means that you are moving further and further away from reality and deeper into a dream. For Alice to wake up, she has to climb out of the rabbit hole. Going UP the rabbit hole is taking the red pill for Neo.

Elon Musk is slowly killing Twitter. Good for nostr

Platformer

Yes, Elon Musk created a special system for showing you all his tweets first

After his Super Bowl tweet did worse numbers than President Biden’s, Twitter’s CEO ordered major changes to the algorithm

My Twitter for you is now a Elon-first feed. I'm glad nostr is a good alternative and will surpass Twitter soon
